Attention homebrewers: You should probably attend Homebrew Con

Homebrewers from across the country will flock to The Baltimore Convention Center June 9-11 for the National Homebrewers Conference, which — for the first year ever — will go by its brand new name: Homebrew Con.

An estimated 3,200 attendees will have the opportunity hear from over 90 presenters, including keynote speaker Sam Calagione, founder of Dogfish Head Craft Brewery, one of the most recognized breweries in the country. Presenters include other pioneering and veteran homebrewers, Cicerones, mead makers and more.

Hosted by the American Homebrewers Association, the event — a three-day extravaganza of homebrewing culture, companionship and competition — features special interactive seminars, workshops and demonstrations that educate and enlighten homebrewers and beer enthusiasts of every level.

The 38th annual conference is also home to the final round of judging in this year’s National Homebrew Competition, the world’s largest beer competition, which recognizes the most outstanding homebrewed beer, mead and cider produced by amateur brewers worldwide.

The American Homebrewers Association has worked on behalf of the homebrewing community since 1978 and celebrates a membership of more than 46,000 homebrewers and beer enthusiasts. This fun and educational gathering brings together homebrewing fans and friends from across the country to broaden their brewing skills and knowledge, while enhancing the community’s camaraderie.
